Solution

The correct option is D $(1024 - 64) \div 64$
Since 64 out of 1024 mangoes are rotten,
Number of mangoes left = 1024 - 64

Number of boxes packed = number of mangoes to be packed $\div$ number of mangoes in each box.

$= (1024 - 64) \div 64$

Therefore, $(1024 - 64) \div 64$ represents the number of boxes of mangoes Glen packs.
